{"product_id":"five-skies-ron-carlson-9780143113461","title":"Five Skies","description":"Beloved story writer Ron Carlson's first novel in thirty years, Five Skies is the story of three men gathered high in the Rocky Mountains for a construction project that is to last the summer. Having participated in a spectacular betrayal in Los Angeles, the giant, silent Arthur Key drifts into work as a carpenter in southern Idaho. Here he is hired, along with the shiftless and charming Ronnie Panelli, to build a stunt ramp beside a cavernous void. The two will be led by Darwin Gallegos, the foreman of the local ranch who is filled with a primeval rage at God, at man, at life.\u003cp\u003eAs they endeavor upon this simple, grand project, the three reveal themselves in cautiously resonant, profound ways. And in a voice of striking intimacy and grace, Carlson's novel reveals itself as a story of biblical, almost spiritual force. A bellwether return from one of our greatest craftsmen, Five Skies is sure to be one of the most praised and cherished novels of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron Carlson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0143113461\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143113461\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.66w x 0.43d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Idaho Library Association Book Award - Honorable Mention","brand":"Ron Carlson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946226909439,"sku":"9780143113461","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_218c4aca-288a-418e-9698-2a32d435ed8f.jpg?v=1681512117","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/five-skies-ron-carlson-9780143113461","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
